Thanks---I think that's the more sane interpretation of the joke.  Don't
underestimate people.  Even though one of the mathematicians tacitly
considered people more intellectually prepared than the other
mathematician claimed, it seems both would be surprised with the answer.

But, finally, I think the joke is pretty bad---unless we make the
waitress into a joker herself.  If she knows the antiderivative of x^2,
she surely wouldn't have any trouble understanding the expression 1/3
x^3, violating the facts narrated in the joke.  But if she's
well-educated in the topic, she could easily come up with a joke herself
on the spot.  (And there's a statistician joke in here as well about
sample size; and another about how fraud and corruption and so on.  So,
yeah, I think the joke is pretty bad.)
